For most shoppers we'd start with AM Rx (ranked #509, a hair above #515) — Cost-first shoppers who want insured shoppers chasing brand-name GLP-1 copays, provided they choose the flat Bundle plan rather than the a-la-carte route whose true monthly cost the site doesn't fully disclose. But PRIMO Health Partners is a genuine coin-flip alternative here.

AM Rx
42/100Where the value is
- Insurance coordination for brand-name Ozempic/Wegovy/Zepbound/Mounjaro, quoting copays 'as little as $25 per month'
- A flat 'Bundle' pricing option ($297 semaglutide / $449 tirzepatide after a discounted first month) avoids the ambiguity of the a-la-carte route's undisclosed ongoing membership fee
- HSA/FSA accepted
The tradeoffs
- The headline 'starting as low as $151/$216 per month' figures require a separate ongoing membership fee that AM Rx's own FAQ never discloses the amount of — unlike sibling site RoenRx, which explicitly states $135/month for the equivalent membership
- No states list is published; the only geographic restriction disclosed is exclusion of government-insurance (Medicare/Medicaid) patients
Regulatory note: the FDA issued a warning letter to FitRX, LLC dba AM RX in June 2026. We still list and link to AM Rx; you should know the letter is on the public record before you decide.
PRIMO Health Partners
42/100Where the value is
- Prescribes both semaglutide and tirzepatide after a virtual consult
- Prescriptions can be routed to a pharmacy for either pickup or delivery
- Two phone lines listed for support
The tradeoffs
- No pricing published on the site
- States served and dispensing pharmacy are not disclosed
